Match Thread Everton vs Burnley - Preview, Match Report and MotM Poll

[Toffeelover]

A bit apprehensive on this game, Burnley have upset a few clubs so far this season.

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

As horrible as it sounds, I think we have to go 443 tomorrow and play Mina and Keane to deal with all the high balls we are sure to see.
Pickford, Godfrey, Keane, Mina, Digne: Davies, Allan, Gomes: King, DCL, Richarlison.
Where possible, miss out the midfield and have Pickford and Keane play long balls over the top to use the power and pace of the front 3.
Ugly stuff, but, we need the points and all our creativity is injured.

Wont we get fined for playing 12 men?

You have to match their intensity, they scrap and fight for everything and with that clown of a ref they will be all in on the snide.

Doucoure a big miss, I think we'll win, but it could be heavy going.

With that ref there is every chance we'd get away without him noticing.

 

[Death]

I love you Everton.

Do what thou will.

? I suppose we would if we did, there are only 11 men in that team though.

goalie plus 443?

 

[Charles Hawtrey]

Unless Pickford is playing in the back four.

 

[Goat]

Pickford
Coleman - Keane - Mina - Digne
Allan - Davies
Iwobi
King - DCL - Rico
​

That will be the side, stand on me.

............Pickford.........
Holgate..Keane..Mina...Godfrey
Coleman...Allan...Davies......Digne
..............Richarlison..DCL.......
Not much creativity but that’s all we got basically, unless swap Coleman for Iwobi but I’d rather not.

King?

Pickford
Coleman - Keane - Godfrey - Digne

Pickford
Coleman - Keane - Godfrey - Digne
Allan - Davies - Gomes

Harsh on Holgate being dropped.

I do wonder if Carlo might consider playing Holgate as a DM at some point over the next few weeks.

 

[Groucho]

Why, what have I done? Am I not allowed to stand up for myself?

It is still small minded.

I’d recommending relaxing mate, don’t take things too seriously.

Is that his preferred position though?

goalie plus 443?

Ha ha seen it now, mistyped 443 instead of 433, put the players in though and I've counted them there are only 11 so hopefully no fine.
